Apology

Sorry to sound so snotty in my last post, but I did not sleep well last night due to my foot throbbing all night long.  I just wanted to add one more thing.  I currently have insurance, which I have worked for.  The issue is, if I go ahead and just work 4 hours a night for the next month until this foot feels better, my HR person states then there will be an issue with the insurance! 

This FMLA person has left me in such a bind with our workload that it is not funny.  She was transferred from data entry because they could not keep up with her calling off.  So, the plan was to put her in transcription so she could take work home to do if she had to be home.  This has never occurred. 

Anyway, it's my problem - - whatever.  Back to soaking my foot!

I'm sorry amdahwd you did stick up for me.  I guess I misread another post that sounded as if they were saying just shut up and take the abuse  - -  LOL!!!  Like I said I have been back to work for 7 days now and have not slept real well since, so I am a little cranky. 

Regarding firing this person, every time I bring it up they say that they cannot let her go because she is FMLA, that she is protected!  It is ridiculous.  She has only worked 7 out of the past 18 work days this month.  This is the normal pattern for her.  I only have two other fulltime transcriptionists besides myself, and again I am the supervisor and have other duties besides transcribing.  We transcribe for 42 therapists and physicians.  We are very, very busy.  I used to push and put out 1800 to 2200 lines a night.  I am no longer going to kill myself for this company. 

I asked to get someone hired before I went out on surgical leave to get them trained, etc. , before I left.  Did that happen no!  They said that I had all positions available filled (even though one is never here).  So, with this person calling off all the time when I was gone, and one of my other transcriptionists taking a very hard earned vacation, we are in a mess.  The administration around here just does not get it.  They are always wondering why we are behind.  I was asked once by the CEO, "Well, all you do is type right?".  Needless to say, I am burnt out and just needed to vent.  I figured MTStars was the place to vent, as I was thinking some of you may have been, or are, in a position such as mine. 

Sorry for sounding so #@%$!

Again, please, I don't want it to sound like I give a hoot if her parents are divorced or not, that's not my issue.

I was simply asking for opinions mostly regarding teens working and paying for their expenses themselves, like gas, shopping, etc. 

Let me state my point clearly...Do your teens work? If so, how old were they when they started? Do you feel that teens working interferes with their school and if so, how? These are the things I'm wondering about, NOT divorced parents, sheesh!

i offered to send the administrator anything they need in one of the comments.  i have proof of my innocence.  geez......... doris latta stated in one of the documents she sent to the labor board that she did not have proof or copys of her pay history.  hello!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  lol

well i have all proof of payments and i do not use checks.

However, please understand that requires diligence in working within yourself and many cannot or will not and therefore continue in their addiction.  You need to consult medical data and psychology before claiming there is a cure, because I do believe if you have one there are many people who would give their left arm to know it.

This is not the first time -- she's the first to blast you if she thinks you didn't make your line count, work when you should, etc., but if she makes a mistake, she NEVER says "I'm sorry," or "I was wrong" ... nada!  Most of the time, I just blow it off.  The pay is great, the accounts good, and sufficient work, but other times, I wonder if it is worth it.  I suppose in today's job market, I should just be glad to be employed ... maybe I'm just greedy in also wanting to be treated with professionalism, respect, and courtesy. 

Not sure if I even have a point -- guess I just needed to vent a bit.  Thanks for "listening."
